    Well, you're certianly entitled to your opinion but I think quite below average is pushing it. He's an average defender this year.

    But I think it's more complicated than that. James still cheats too much. That's fine if you have a rim protector. Capela was starting to show signs of becoming that. It's mostly situational mistakes you see from James now. As situations go, sometimes you can't control what happens. James is still learning w/ this team. It's exciting to watch.

    some hakeem fans are hating on james harden, they are worried he is entering his aura.. all harden needs is an mvp( he should already have one) but unfornately harden was born in the social media era( where yelling, kicking at opponents earns you style points with voters)

    Yep you take the win which in my opinion now ensures us atleast a top four finish . This game was huge in terms of future standings. 4 game buffer now on the Clippers and the Grizz is huge.

    It is sad some people cannot stop hating on Harden because of their agendas and beefs .It is downright petty. Harden smiling after getting a triple double is somehow a crime.

    Great win, way to blow 'em out. Gotta continue to get better defensively come playoff time though.

    I wonder how many people saw Dream play back in the day, saw us at the 6th seed that one year, and ended up making a killing...Same franchise.

    Deandre Jordan had a huge 3rd quarter so that's obviously Harden's defensive problems and not the fact we didn't really have appropriately sized defenders for him.

    Chris Webber picked the Rockets to repeat when the 1995 playoffs started. If he put money on it, he would've made a fortune.

    We all know NBA refs are crooks, but how bout them tonight? 43 FTs for Htown boys. I think the Viper would of won against tonight's LA team with that many FTs.

    It's not that bad, but I wouldn't want to open it at work or in front of grandma.

    When Capela comes back, Rocks are going to be ball hard.

    My god what court vision. Looking forward to the new era of Harden and Monstrez/Capela air show ooops for the next 5 years.
